--- End quote ---

The stone table is actually part of a larger theme regarding the consumption of others' power. We see this in SK (stone peril), GP (Kravos), DB (darkhallow) and GS (eating other spirits). I'd also say it applies to Lea's collection of hounds and to what we've seen of the Fomor.

Rascal:
I agree that the stone table does share elements with the recurring notion of 'ascension' but it let's not forget it also shares elements with the idea of balance insofar as it plays a pivotal role when the seasons change. It's also a ritual item too.

Consequently, this overlap plus its own distinctions and that it occurred in more than one book make me think it could have its own entry.
